We will certainly MISS Bill. We considered Bill a very good neighbor. There were times when he helped us with our fire wood. And once, he even used his bulldozer to pull ours out of the mud. Death, the Bible says, is an ENEMY. When we lose someone in death, the emotional avalanche we feel is proof of that. It can feel like our very heart is being ripped out of our body. Or we can be so angry that nothing makes sense. Our Creator purposed that humans live [happily] forever. But Adam, Eve and Satan committed an act of treason against Jehovah, their Creator, leaving the human race--the whole world--in the situation we’re in. We look forward to the time when Jesus will UNDO all the works of the Devil and bring our loved ones BACK to us. The Bible book of Acts [chapter 24 verse 15] makes the point that even some who didn’t believe in Jesus still believed in a resurrection. In fact, Jehovah’s [God’s] purpose is to have MANY now dead come to life again and enjoy a life free from the problems we suffer from now. Really, it can’t come too soon. Dave Stover
